Well when we started to leave for the Bahamas my buddy boat Donut started spewing white smoke. So we went back and anchored at Rodriquez then went up the channel to Biscayne Bay. We are now anchored off of Biscayne Key.

Yesterday's trip was a little chilly in a swim suit. The wave were high enough to where they would have caused concern 7 months ago, but I am proud that my crew is now a little more realistic.

Debbie was learning the ropes. :-) That is she was handling the sails yesterday. Mom was in charge of communications and learning to operate and speak on the radio.

Debbie was actually screaming with delight when we would hit one of the larger waves and ventured outside the cockpit a little.

Debbie has 5 days at sea with no sea sickness and no sea sickness medicine, so it seems that part of her life is over unless we sit in a harbor too long.

The colors of the water are amazing in this stretch of Ocean.

When the weather improves we will make our way to dinner key for Donut to get her repairs made.
